On behalf of the Synod of the Northeast and the Come to the Table Planning Team, we want to extend our heartfelt gratitude to you for your generous donations for the Blessing Bags. Your selfless contributions will make a significant difference in the lives of those in need, and we are deeply appreciative of your support.

The Blessing Bags will go a long way in offering comfort and support to those who may be experiencing challenging times. The contents of these bags will not only meet basic needs but also serve as a symbol of hope, reminding the recipients that they are not alone and that there are people who care about their well-being. In total more than 125 bags were distributed around the Synod to shelters and congregations working with houseless persons.

Once again, thank you for your valuable contribution. Your generosity exemplifies the love and compassion that our faith brings forth to our Synod communities through our Matthew 25 initiative.

With deep gratitude and warm regards,

Come to the Table Planning Committee
